Development of Arsenal of
Democracy Complete, Set for February 23 Release

Paradox Interactive announced that
development of BL-Logic’s sprawling World War II strategy game, Arsenal of
Democracy, has been completed, and that the game will be released via all major
digital distribution outlets on February 23 for $19.99. A new trailer describing
the game and its features has also been released.

Arsenal of Democracy was developed
by BL-Logic, a team comprised of passionate fans of the Paradox’s landmark
Hearts of Iron series. The game takes players to World War II with total
economic, diplomatic and military control over the nation of their choosing,
giving them the chance to rewrite history and change the course of history’s
greatest global conflict. Arsenal of Democracy offers players unparalleled
historical detail alongside the most in-depth and realistic representation of
the multitude of challenges faced by the leaders of the time.

Johan Andersson, Executive Producer
at Paradox Interactive, said of the game, “Arsenal of Democracy is proof of what
happens when a group of dedicated individuals plays something for years and
years – in this case, Hearts of Iron II – and then has the opportunity to add
their own ideas, their own features—in order improve it… It’s a true labor of
love.”

Arsenal of Democracy is scheduled
for release on February 23 for $19.99. It will be available via all major
digital distributors, including Direct2Drive, GamersGate and Steam.
